Best tutorial I have been able to find, the menu has changed a bit in the past few years, but the tutorial was clear enough to make sense of it all. Thanks so much.
Great video, thanks! Have always used Bartender, but was getting bored and needed something to do. I have to say within about the first minute and a half of watching this it answered about 4 different questions/problems I had. Thanks for the tutorial!!
Concise and well orginized vid :D Some pointers 1. Shortcut, use /dom to open the config menu 2. Padding is useful for putting space between bars. If you're using multiple bars with modifiers for each bar, having a visual break between bars helps in determining which modifier to use for each bar. 3. In the Dominos settings, you can toggle actionbar locking, as well as a lock 'momentary toggle' value.
It is likely that you only have 1 skill assigned to the bar that is showing. Once you get access to all bars this shouldn't be a problem. Also, try going into config and see if maybe the other bars are set to a 0 opacity for some reason.
I just wanted to say thank you, I never knew about the /dom bar setting command, I deicded to take a look at your tutorial for things I may have missed when I installed it back in BC or WOTLK (Can't remember which I just know i've had it a long time, :) )
@stereoamp88 Not sure what you mean. 2:27 is "show empty buttons" and that check box is still there. Or are you talking about the configuration itself? Should be "/dominos" or you can click the button that looks like a domino on your mini map. If the configuration isn't there and your power bars look like they normally do in wow, you may want to check and make sure Dominos is installed and loaded.
@10ckg I believe there is a standard option for this within the WoW interface menu. Should turn off the tooltips even when using Dominos. Sorry for the late response.
@fritstwist - I have never used my Shaman without Dominos so the Dominos Totems functionality works fine for me. Evidently, people aren't happy with Dominos in this regard. Something to do with not being able to switch individual totems out as quickly as they'd like? Some people recommend FloTotemBar to handle totems when using Dominos and it does look like a good addon. As for me, I have all my totems available on small bars next to the totem bars, so I can still switch on the fly easily.
@DPerfy I'm not sure what the problem is. You may want to check for a dominos update just in case this was a known issue. Personally I turn my Dominos xp bar off anyway and use the addon XPBarNone, which gives me more flexibility on how my xp bar is displayed.
@paithet Go into Dominos and Configure Bars. Find the "roll" bar and right click. Make sure Faded Opacity and Opacity are both set to 100 and make sure that it's large enough and set somewhere that you'll see it. I made the mistake once of moving it off into a corner somewhere and missing rolls as a result. Now I have it right in the center of my screen. If this doesn't do the trick you might want to post the problem at Curse and if you don't get an answer you may want to try Bartender instead.
@tdaddye I was unable to find a macro, however if you go into your WoW Key Bindings menu at the very bottom of the Action Bar Functions list there is a Toggle ActionBar Lock binding. You can key bind this and it will work with Dominos.
@valk546 I do not know of a way to do this. I don't use the Dominos xp bar, though. I recommend XPBarNone which you can get at curse. You can have it show xp or rep, or xp with rep on hover-over, and of course you can move it around and resize it. With just a bit of scripting you can also have it tell you whatever data you prefer (xp needed, % through level, etc.)
@MrsShaiaz Opacity should be at 100 and Faded Opacity at 0. If it isn't working I'd suggest to make certain you have the current version. For it to work properly you need to exit configuration mode once you've set it. Hope that helps!
You should automatically have bars 0 through 9. Although, there may be some classes that automatically use one of the bars for something... but unfortunately I can't remember for certain.
Is there any addon to adjust you spells yet keeping the original 'look' of the game? Wat i mean is, keeping the bags, spells etc on the bottom with xp bar overtop and the brown border around everything on the bottom.
@VitCor9595 I use a shareware program called CamStudio, which is very limited in its function and I don't edit these at this time - they are all one take (often the 5th or 6th take, but one take regardless.) The CamStudio video settings (which I wish I could credit to the youtube vid I got them from but I don't remember it) are DivX Codec with key frames 30, capture frames 50, playback rate 20, max framerate 1 per minute. I also use a logitech desktop mic for sound input while recording.
@Brazzashlazzawazza Go into configuration mode. Right click the bar you want to change. Change the drop-down from "Layout" to "Druid." Now you can set Cat Form, Prowl, Tree of Life, Bear Form and Moonkin Form to reflect whichever bar you want.
Can you only see bar 1 even in configuration mode? I would expect that you'd see the outline of all of them. If not, perhaps you are getting interference from another addon and should try just loading dominos as your only addon to see if this is the case.
@ptstiffler70 Not that I know of. There are some addons that have everything preset with some pretty cool designs but I'm not aware of a way to mix and match with the WoW ui.
@unholyfarter As far as I know they are basically the same except for the GUI. I tried Bartender and actually found it to be more difficult to use for me. Which one is easier probably has a lot more to do with the individual user than the design of the addon itself.
sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I don't know why you wouldn't have any bars. Could be interference with another addon. Try turning off all your addons except Dominos and see if you get all the bars. Then process of elimination to figure out what the problem is.
@flymolo Hai how do you get the bars to like hide when your curser is not over them, but when you put your mouse over the bar, it shows :/ I can't see any options or anything that should get this... I heard like faded opacity * opacity is the thing but i can't get it to work
hi, i can't seem to choose need or greed when im doing dungeon. It happens only after I install addons. But the only addons I'm using are Auctioneer and dominos. The problem is every time we have to choose need or greed, it said I pass on the loot even though i haven't chosen yet and there isn't even pop-up screen to choose. Is there a problem with dominos?
So, I have been using dominos for quite some time now and I really like it. Unfortunately, a few weeks ago I was suddenly unable to scroll through all of my action bars when quick-paging. I have no idea if I have done something to offset the default settings or whatnot, but now I can only quick-page through two bars, number 1 and number 2; they are the only ones that show up in the number 1 bar when I shift+scroll the mouse; the rest are fixed right next to the first bar and perfectly customizable in regards to making them invisible and all of that, but they never show anymore in number 1 when quick-paging. I am not really seeing anything in the options on how to correct this. Little help?
@flymolo but this happens when i play a shaman the xp and totoem bar don`t show but on my mage everything is showing when i try bartender4 i can`t put spells on my action bar when i mode them
i need help somehow every action bar addons i have installed dont seem to show the bars so i cna place my spells on ive tried everything but it wont show and when i installed it i log in and my players action bar where gone basically everything was gone plz help me.
hey .. question for osme reason i can onysee my freaking combat box which is only 1 box... can u tell me how i can default to begin from the beginning? alsoi deleted n reinstalled n that failed
@Coolbey34 The first thing I would do is make sure my Dominos was the latest version. Then I would isolate it by turning off all my addons except Dominos. If Dominos works when running by itself then you know there is a problem due to another addon. If neither of these work, you can probably contact the programmer at curse(dot)com and see if he can help you out.
I've had dominos for years now. But recently I had to reinstall wow and all my addons. When I installed dominos again, I can move my buffs and debuffs. Anyone know how to get rid of that?
i play on a 3.3.5 private server and i just downloaded this and i go into game and i only have 1 skill and i dont have any bars can you help me please respond quick
Hi, Kalin. Unfortunately I can't do much trouble-shooting with you since I don't have a WoW account or a computer capable of playing WoW at the moment, but if I had to guess I would say another addon is probably interfering. Try turning off all other addons and then log in to see if Dominoes works for you. If it does, start turning your addons back on until you find the culprit. If it is an addon that you can live without, just get rid of it and your problem will be solved!

Thank you, Maria! Just so you know, I am playing Classic and may begin doing more videos in the spring.

with you haveing them in the bottom right corner like that is there away to cut off the show tool tip thing becase im haveing a prob with that
Also what do we type to have a bar show only when your out of combat (like your mount bar)
